"Easter egg" in the XMLs?
« on: May 25, 2013, 12:41:31 AM »
I was tweaking some things in the XMLs to try to balance out skirmish based on discussion between myself and a friend who play together regularly (I'll get around to creating a thread on this someday), and I noticed there's a Victory_Frigate in the EotH Space Units file which has the text <!-- You found an easter egg --!> above it. What's up with this? o.o

Most likely a unit that was ambiguous in the fact that we weren't sure if we were using it or not. And if it's the unit I think it is, it's not surprising.

EotH started off essentially as what the PA is now; an assortment of obscure Imperial units. We then shifted it to have what it does now. The VSFII was one of those units.
I also have a YouTube channel where I talk about mod development and gaming, do tutorials, and Let's Plays. If you like the content, consider supporting it on Patreon
